Crimea Bridge

The Crimea Bridge, also known as the Kerch Strait Bridge, is a major infrastructure link connecting mainland Russia to the Crimean Peninsula across the Kerch Strait. It includes a combined roadway and rail tunnel, allowing transportation of vehicles, goods, and passengers. Completed in 2018, the bridge enhances strategic and economic connectivity, facilitating easier movement between Russia and Crimea. It also has significant military, political, and logistical importance, symbolizing Russia's control over Crimea since its annexation in 2014. The bridge is one of the longest in Europe and a key infrastructure asset in the region.
